The 2001 Chilean Social Mobility Survey examined inter-generational and intra-generational mobility in Chile. The data contain information on adult Chilean men's education, migration, current job, first job, social origins (parents' education, occupation, assets and living standards when the respondent was 14 years old), wife/partner, inter-generational transfers, household income and assets, respondent's siblings and focal brother, and respondent's opinions about inequality and determinants of economic well-being. Demographic variables include sex, age, education level, and socio-economic status.

This collection could not be completely processed because there were several variables that had no value labels; it will be updated once new data/documentation become available. Please contact the P.I. of the study for further information.

This collection contains data and documentation in Spanish. This is how it was received by ICPSR.

The dataset contains a post-stratification weight variable (WEIGHT) which users may wish to apply during analysis.
